## Abstract Characterization and identification of peptides with bioactivity from food have received considerable interest recently since such bioactive components must be adequately documented if they are part of functional food claims. We have characterized peptides from colostrum or those genera

Rather like a satellite navigation system directing a vehicle to a particular destination defined by post-code, immune cells have homing molecules or ''immune post-codes'' enabling them to be recruited to specific organs, such as the intestine or skin. An efficient system would be designed such that
The role of CD8 T cells in adaptive immune responses is well understood. These lymphocytes respond through their T cell receptors to diverse antigens presented by MHC class I molecules by proliferating, secreting cytokines and chemokines, and directly lysing infected cells. Recently, a role for CD8
